Three things to know about this game:
Tigers second baseman Ian Kinsler (left hamstring) is expected to return to the lineup after missing the three-game series in Oakland this past weekend.

Ray made his MLB debut with the Tigers in 2014 before he was shipped to Arizona in December of that year as part of a three-team deal that also included the Yankees.

Verlander has enjoyed success against the D-backs, going 2-0 with a 1.84 ERA and 19 strikeouts in two starts, the latest coming in 2014 at Chase Field.

After a Cy Young exodus, Detroit may have found enough pitching to make a cameo in October.

After hitting 99 mph at end of start, Justin Verlander feels 'really close'.

Verlander has had one clunker of a start, one of the worst of his career, on April 15 at Cleveland.
The only three home runs he's allowed all year came one that one bad day at Progressive Field.
Putting that aside, he has a 2.58 ERA in his other six starts.
